Jedi vs. Sith: The Essential Guide to the Force (Star Wars)
THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO THE ABSOLUTE POWER AT THE HEART OF THE STAR WARS GALAXYThe Force, in the immortal words of Obi-Wan Kenobi, “surrounds us, it penetrates us, it binds the galaxy together.” The fortunate few who are able to tap into this extraordinary power have studied and cultivated the full spectrum of its potential–either embracing its virtuous qualities or succumbing to its evil temptations. The Jedi seek to bring peace and enlightenment to the galaxy, while the Sith hunger only for conquest and control.
This comprehensive one-of-a-kind overview chronicles the known history of the Force and its wielders down through the ages, from the founding tenets of Jedi and Sith teachings to the landmark events and legendary figures who have shaped the struggle between the light and dark sides. In first-hand accounts by Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa Solo, Darth Bane, Darth Vader, Count Dooku, Emperor Palpatine, and a host of other Jedi Masters, Sith Lords, scholars, and sages, Star Wars: Jedi vs. Sith: The Essential Guide to the Force spans the breadth of available knowledge, including
• the first recorded discovery of the Force
• significant battles affected by the Force throughout galactic history
• the purpose, construction, and importance of Holocrons
• the evolution of the Jedi and Sith orders

• a vivid portrait of the Chosen One, Anakin Skywalker
PLUS–More than one hundred brand new full-color illustrations!

Very good book !
Really cool for star wars fans, full of details about jedi history. There's a lot of pictures and it's real easy to read. Highly recommended ! :)
If you thought you might be interested...
...then you would definitely enjoy this book. I have enjoyed most of the 'Essential' books of the Star Wars Universe. I find that they are very good at filling in the holes between the books, comics and games. It answers lots of little questions that you didn't even know had been asked.
Reference for George Lucas' Universe
The book has a very complete "historical" background for the Star Wars universe. Although some topics are not covered in the films, it emcompasses all books, comics and other sources of George Lucas' universe. It is a must for all Star Wars fans!
